GENERATION ACTIVE RFID
The parameters of the localization engine consists of the following:
● active_mode
Selects whether localisation is switched off, or the position or measurement mode is selected.
Default value: off.
○ Position
This parameter enables the SmartPoint to perform RSS measurements for centralized
calculation. Only X,Y,Z and timestamp values are pushed.
○ Measurement
This parameter enables the SmartPoint to perform RSS measurements for centralized
calculation, debug or research purposes. The raw RSS measurements are pushed along
with the location (X,Y,Z, timestamp)
● auto_period
This parameter represents the period in seconds in which the SmartPoint locates itself or
performs RSS measurements. Decreasing this parameter increases the energy consumption.
The minimum value of auto_period is set to 10 seconds.
Default value: 300.
● discover_time
This parameter represents the time the Smartpoint searches for a 3000 Series network.
Default value: 32.
● scan_time
This parameter represents the time the SmartPoint listens to MicroRouters for obtaining
RSSI information. Increasing this parameter increases the energy consumption of the
SmartPoint.
